SABRES 0311

Because he doesn’t do much. Good at protecting the puck though.

McDavid enters the zone with a lot of speed, jiggles his shoulders around, then peels off. No real danger.

If Norris is hurt again you just gotta accept the fact he is an unreliable presence. Very talented but not the stability this fragile team needs.

Norris out of the lineup….again.

These lines are irritating. I understand the Quinn, McLeod, and Zucker (Rosen) line has done well. But you gotta try Quinn in the top six. Whatever, let’s keep putting dog **** on the ice and wonder why we don’t win. Maybe EDM will score a clean goal so Ruff can challenge it.

I didn’t stay up but I woke up to 7-4. Nobody will probably agree but you gotta start this thing over.

Tuch at his best isn’t 11mil.

Time for a rebuild starting with the owner position.

Malenstyn did his bear hug.

I don't think any one game is a defining moment in time for the franchise. IMO, a defining moment would be an ability to win consistently at or above .600 for a quarter of the season. Specifically, the first or second quarter of the season. It seems we have multiple "must wins" and "defining" games which just doesn't make sense to me. This team is so inconsistent in effort and execution that one single game does not define what type of team they are because the next game they too easily revert to garbage or be lights out. When there is no foundation there can't be any definition. I appreciate your optimism, and I really wish it were so, but this team lacks an ability to put individual skillsets together to form a team of players that compliments each other. Even if they win 10-0 tonight, it is not indicative of turning a corner. They have to win consistently for an extended period of time for that to happen. Unfortunately, it's something this team has been unable to do for years, and time is running out.

If they **** this one up then I support a post KA full rebuild. Players, management, support staff, etc.

Those lines suck. Greenway on the top line?

I don’t understand Greenway with Tuch and Thompson. They don’t need the muscle.

This is the best I could come up with to shake things up. Doan Thompson Tuch Benson Norris Quinn Zucker McLeod Östlund Malenstyn Krebs Greenway/Dunne
